While I don't have quite the impressive list vlad does, I do know it runs a 13.0 in the 1/4. It had a S54B32 engine (same as the E46 M3), and it's a blast to drive!! Sorry I don't have more info, just wanted to say something.

The M coupe is an awesome car! Too bad not enough people liked it.

2001+ M Coupe will run ~13.2 stock in the 1/4 mile. 0-60 has been tested at 4.5-4.6 or so. Automobile magazine clearly stated the M Coupe pulled on all the other M cars (M3, M5) in their article that compared them all.

There have been stock M coupes running high 12's. It pulls on 996's and will give the vast majority of cars on the road a beating they might not have expected.
